History  of 

The  Corcoran  Gallery  of  Art 

THE  CORCORAN  GALLERY  OF  ART,  orig- 
inally  located  at  the  corner  of  Seventeenth  Street 
and  Pennsylvania  Avenue,  including  ground,  build¬ 
ing,  its  contents,  and  endowment  fund,  was  the  gift 
of  the  late  Mr.  William  Wilson  Corcoran  to  the  public 
by  deed,  dated  May  10,  1869,  “to  be  used  solely  for 
the  purposes  of  encouraging  American  genius  in  the 
production  and  preservation  of  works  pertaining  to  the 
Fine  Arts,  and  kindred  objects,”  with  the  condition 
that  it  should  be  open  to  visitors  without  any  pecuni¬ 
ary  charge  whatever  at  least  two  days  in  each  week, 
with  authority  to  charge  for  admission  at  other  times 
such  moderate  and  reasonable  fee  as  might  be  pre-

History  of  The  Corcoran  Gallery  of  Art 


scribed,  the  proceeds  arising  therefrom  to  be  applied 
to  the  current  expenses  of  the  Institution. 

The  Institution  was  chartered  by  Act  of  Congress 
May  24,  1870.  By  that  act  the  building  and  its  con¬ 
tents  were  declared  exempt  from  all  taxation. 

The  building  was  designed  by  Mr.  James  Ren- 
wick,  architect,  and  begun  in  1859,  but  before  com¬ 
pletion,  early  in  1861,  it  was  occupied  by  the  United 
States  Quartermaster-General’s  Department  until 
1869. 

On  the  tenth  of  May,  1869,  its  owner  placed  it  in 
the  hands  of  a  Board  of  nine  Trustees  for  the  purposes 
already  named.  After  the  Institution  was  incorpo¬ 
rated  by  Congress,  in  1870,  the  general  work  of  re¬ 
construction  and  adaptation  of  the  building  to  its 
original  purpose  was  begun,  and  finished  in  1871. 

In  1873  a  Trustee  went  to  Europe  empowered  to 
purchase  works  of  art  for  the  Gallery,  and  Mr.  Cor¬ 
coran’s  private  collection  of  pictures  and  statuaiy 
was  then  placed  in  it.  On  November  6,  1873,  the 
Board  of  Trustees  completed  the  organization  of  the 
Institution. 

On  the  nineteenth  of  January,  1874,  the  Picture 
Galleries,  Octagon  Room,  and  the  Hall  of  Bronzes 
were  thrown  open  for  private  exhibition  by  day  and 
night,  Mr.  Corcoran  receiving  the  congratulations  of 
his  friends  upon  the  fulfilment  thus  far  of  his  munifi¬ 
cent  plans. 

On  April  29,  1874,  the  Halls  of  Sculpture  and  of 
Bronzes  were  opened  to  the  public,  and  in  December, 
1874,  the  two  side  galleries  of  sculpture  adjoining  the 
Main  Hall ;  so  that  all  the  rooms  of  the  Institution  for 
exhibition  purposes  were  then  opened  to  the  public.

The  Present  Gallery 

The  building  on  the  comer  of  Pennsylvania  Av¬ 
enue  and  Seventeenth  Street  was  used  for  the 
purposes  for  which  it  was  intended  until  it  became 
apparent  that,  as  planned,  it  would,  in  a  compara¬ 
tively  short  time,  be  wholly  inadequate  for  the  proper 
display  of  the  works  of  art  belonging  to  the  Gallery, 
while  larger  and  better  facilities  were  already  re¬ 
quired  for  the  rapidly  growing  Free  School  of  Art, 
for  which  thoughtful  provision  had  been  previously 
made  by  Mr.  Corcoran.  At  the  same  time  it  was  found 
that,  through  inability  to  acquire  land  adjoining  its 
site,  it  would  be  impossible  to  enlarge  the  then  existing 
building  so  as  to  meet  the  future  wants  of  the  two 
establishments.  These  conditions  impressed  upon 
the  minds  of  the  Trustees  the  necessity  of  providing, 
without  delay,  for  the  erection  of  a  larger,  more  con¬ 
veniently  arranged,  and  better  lighted  building,  upon 
a  plot  of  ground  large  enough  to  not  only  furnish 
space  for  the  projected  structure,  but  also  to  provide 
for  such  enlargements  of  the  Gallery  as  might  be 
required  from  time  to  time  to  suitably  house  future 
acquisitions  of  paintings,  sculptures,  etc.  With  these 
ends  in  view,  steps  were  taken  to  find  and  secure  a 
proper  location,  and  on  the  third  of  April,  1891,  the 
purchase  of  a  portion  of  Square  171,  fronting  on 
Seventeenth  and  E  Streets,  respectively,  on  the  east 
and  south,  and  on  New  York  Avenue  on  the  north, 
was  ordered,  and  subsequently  purchased. 

On  the  ninth  of  January,  1892,  it  was  determined 
to  erect  a  new  Gallery  building  on  the  eastern  por¬ 
tion  of  the  ground  thus  secured,  and  designs  and 
plans  for  the  proposed  structure  were  invited  from 
a  number  of  prominent  architects.  Those  submitted 
by  Mr.  Ernest  Flagg,  of  New  York,  were  deemed 
best,  and,  after  some  alterations,  and  modifications,

they  were  accepted,  and  he  was  employed  to  carry 
them  out,  under  the  supervision  of  a  special  com¬ 
mittee,  created  and  empowered  for  that  purpose, 
and  contracts  were  authorized  and  entered  into  ac¬ 
cordingly,  as  follows: 

On  June  26,  1893,  the  ground  for  the  foundation 
of  the  new  building  was  broken. 

On  October  9,  1893,  the  contract  was  made  for  the 
stone  foundations. 

On  January  31,  1894,  the  contract  for  the  base¬ 
ment  walls  was  let. 

On  May  10,  1894,  the  corner-stone  was  laid  with 
appropriate  ceremonies. 

On  June  23,  1894,  the  contract  for  the  erection  of 
the  building  was  accepted;  and  on  January  8,  1897, 
the  keys  of  the  building  were  delivered  to  the  Trustees 
and  the  work  of  transferring  the  works  of  art  from  the 
old  to  the  new  building,  was  commenced. 

On  the  evening  of  the  twenty-second  of  February, 
of  the  same  year,  the  new  building  was  first  formally 
opened,  for  a  private  view,  to  which  more  than  three 
thousand  invitations  were  issued.  The  invitations 
were  largely  accepted,  and,  notwithstanding  the  in¬ 
clement  weather  of  the  evening,  the  several  rooms 
were  at  times  filled  to  their  utmost  capacity.  The 
attendance  included  the  President  of  the  United 
States  and  Mrs.  Cleveland;  the  members  of  his  Cabi¬ 
net  and  their  wives;  Foreign  Ambassadors  and  Min¬ 
isters,  and  members  of  their  respective  legations; 
Senators  and  Representatives  in  Congress;  the  Judi¬ 
ciary  ;  Artists  and  Connoisseurs  of  the  Arts ;  officers  of 
the  Army  and  Navy,  and  hundreds  of  other  ladies  and 
gentlemen  prominent  in  private  and  public  life.  The 
whole  building  was  brilliantly  illuminated  by  over 
three  thousand  electric  fights,  presenting  a  scene  of 
rare  beauty;  and  music  by  the  Marine  Band,  which 
was  present  by  courtesy  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Navy, 
added  to  the  charm  of  the  occasion.

Main  Stairway 


Description  of  the  Building 


I  HE  building  stands  with  its  main  front  on  Seven¬ 
teenth  Street,  extending  from  New  York  Avenue 
on  the  north  to  E  Street  on  the  south, 
distance  of  259  feet, 
extending  back  133  feet, 
and  occupies  about  half 
of  the  lot. 

The  style  of  archi¬ 
tecture  is  Neo-Gre¬ 
cian,  the  material 
being  white  Georgia 
marble,  on  a  base¬ 
ment  of  Milford  pink 
granite.  The  first 
story  is  pierced  by 
windows ;  the  second 
story  rises  in  a  solid 


white  wall  broken  only 
by  a  row  of  open-work 

_  marble  panels  along  the 

upper  edge,  which  serve 
as  ventilators  to  the  Galleries. 

Between  these  panels  and  the  cornice,  which  is  rich 
in  ornamental  carving,  extends  a  narrow  frieze  bear¬ 
ing  in  Roman  letters  the  names  of  some  of  the  most 
famous  painters  and  sculptors  of  ancient  and  modern 
times.  The  roof  of  glass  slants  sharply  upward  to  the 
ridge,  which  is  finished  by  a  cresting  of  bronze,  ter¬ 
minating  at  each  end  of  the  building  in  a  winged 
griffin. 

The  severity  of  the  elevation  is  broken  by  the  curve 
at  the  north  end,  in  which  is  located  the  Art  School. 
It  also  contains  a  lofty  semicircular  room,  designed 
for  lectures,  etc.,  and  likewise,  if  necessary,  for  ex¬ 
hibition  purposes.

Description  of  the  Building 


The  main  entrance  to  the  building  is  on  Seventeenth 
Street.  On  either  side  of  the  steps,  upon  white  marble 
pedestals,  rests  a  colossal  bronze  lion,  cast  from 
moulds  made  over  the  famous  lions  by  Canova, 
which  guard  the  tomb  of  Clement  XIII.,  in  St.  Peter’s, 
Rome. 

Passing  through  this  entrance,  a  broad  and  easy 
flight  of  stairs  leads  directly  to  the  main  corridor  or 
atrium.  This  is  the  largest  hall  in  the  building,  being 
170  feet  long  and  50  feet  wide,  running  north  and 
south  of  the  main  entrance  on  the  first  floor.  Its  light 
comes  through  openings  or  light-wTells  in  the  ceiling 
above,  which  is  supported  by  forty  fluted  monolith 
columns  of  Indiana  limestone.  This  spacious  hall  is 
devoted  to  the  exhibition  of  casts  from  sculptures  of 
the  antique  and  Renaissance  periods.  The  rooms 
surrounding  it  —  except  those  required  for  the  library, 
administration  purposes,  etc.  —  are  also  given  up  to 
original  marbles,  casts,  bronzes,  etc.,  including  the 
large  and  valuable  collection  of  the  works  of  the  late 
Antoine  Louis  Barye,  the  eminent  French  sculptor 
of  animals. 

Directly  in  front,  upon  entering,  and  upon  the 
further  or  western  side  of  the  hall  or  atrium,  rises  the 
grand  white  marble  staircase,  fifteen  feet  in  width, 
and  of  easy  tread,  which  leads  to  the  second-story 
atrium,  of  the  same  dimensions  as  the  one  below. 
This  has  an  immense  skylight  supported  by  thirty- 
eight  fluted  monolith  columns,  also  of  Indiana  lime¬ 
stone. 

Ten  large  doorways,  with  sliding  doors,  lead  from 
the  atrium  to  the  galleries  for  paintings  —  three  fine 
large  rooms  on  Seventeenth  Street,  two  small  and  one 
large  one  on  E  Street,  and  two  still  larger  on  the  west, 
on  either  side  of  the  main  staircase,  all  admirably 
adapted  for  their  purpose  and  perfectly  lighted, 
whether  for  day  or  night  exhibitions.

[Mr.  Inness,  under  date  of  July  23,  1891,  writes  the  following 
note  about  the  painting: 

“The  material  for  my  picture  was  taken  from  a  sketch  made 
near  Hastings,  Westchester  County,  New  York,  twenty  years  ago. 
This  picture  was  commenced  seven  years  ago,  but  until  last  winter 
I  had  not  obtained  any  idea  commensurate  with  the  impression 
received  on  the  spot.  The  idea  is  to  represent  an  effect  of  light  in 
the  woods  toward  sundown,  but  to  allow  the  imagination  to  pre¬ 
dominate,”]

WOOD-GATHERERS 

Dated  1875  44  x  63 

[Corot  was  inspired  to  use  for  the  motive  of  this  picture  an  old 
study  by  Morvan  representing  a  landscape  with  St.  Jerome  at 
prayer.  Alfred  Robaut  owned  the  sketch  for  this  picture,  and  also 
another  one  in  which  the  composition  was  changed  from  “St. 
Jerome”  to  “The  Wood-Gatherers.”  Corot  made  several  sketches 
for  this  picture  and,  in  the  last  transformation  of  the  motive,  he 
changed  the  principal  figure  and  added  other  figures.  The  studies 
show  the  transition  to  an  enlargement  of  the  final  painting. 

The  painting  was  destined  to  become  the  property  of  a  Mr. 
Breysse.  Corot  signed  it  in  his  bed  a  few  days  before  his  death.  It 
was  exhibited  at  the  Salon  in  1875  (No.  519  of  the  catalogue),  and 
was  sold  at  the  Faure  sale  April  29,  1878.  It  appeared  at  The  Cor¬ 
coran  Gallery  of  Art  in  1886.

COUNT  EBERHARD  OF  WURTEMBERG

65  x76 

[The  subject  of  this  picture  is  as  follows:  Ulrich,  son  of  Count 
Eberhard,  had  lost  the  battle  of  Reutlingen,  and  was  dangerously 
wounded.  Many  of  the  nobility  were  slain.  On  his  recovery  he 
leisurely  sought  his  father,  at  Stuttgart,  and  found  him  over  his 
solitary  meal.  He  was  coldly  received.  Not  a  word  was  spoken. 
With  downcast  eyes  he  placed  himself  opposite  his  father.  Fish 
and  wine  were  served  to  him.  The  old  count  seized  a  knife,  and 
cut  the  table-cloth  between  them.  Frenzied  by  this  insult,  Ulrich 
rushed  into  the  middle  of  the  next  fight,  gained  the  battle  of  Dof- 
fingen,  and  was  slain. —  Ballad  of  Uhland. 

“And  while  we  were  celebrating  the  victory  in  our  camp,  what 
was  the  old  count  doing  ?  Alone  in  his  tent,  weeping  over  the  dead 
body  of  his  only  son.” —  Ballad  of  Schiller,
